For Isaias My Friend (My Little Brother)
When I first Isaias I knew next to nothing about roofing and he was a kid and I was becoming an old man.  After a month or so we were off to Midland, TX to do a big re-roof job with a caravan of trucks and guys, which some of those became my boys.  At first Isaias turned a cold shoulder to me, thinking I was there to micro manage him.  After a couple of days I told him that just the two of us needed to have dinner, when I explained to him that I was there because I wanted to learn from him, what and how we did our job so I could help from my end and make his job easier and that is where it started.  Over the years there were many jobs and a lot of road trips (out of town work), where there were plenty of good times and times I wanted to and my head against the wall as I watched Isaias grow up to be the man he became.  Then Isaias got sick, he called me and said he was going to the doctor to find out what was wrong, but not until he got the job started.  When he got to the hospital that is when things went sideways, his heart stopped.  when I got there his sisters and mother were already there.  I had met his sisters before this but not his mother.  The hospital put him in a medically induced coma.  This is where I learned how close and important and how he was loved by his family.  Going to the hospital everyday and sitting there with his family and sometimes just his mother who would not leave, and even though we had a language barrier she would hold my hand and nod and tell me it would be ok.  That is when I affectionately started calling her Mama Fino.  Low and behold Isaias came back to us.  After that there were many good times and stories, to many to tell, and the this tragedy happens.  Now there is a hole in my heart that I know will never be filled.  All I can say is I will always be there for Mama Fino and Isaias' sisters, as I know they will be there for me, so maybe we can heal.
Rest in Peace Little Brother

We all have a significant ex-partner. Someone who was instrumental in every way form of shaping the person who you are today. Well, mine died. His life was tragically cut short by a senseless act. He was my ex partner and step father to my daughter Destiny. We lasted longer than most marriages last these days. Isaias was the one who taught my daughter Destiny how to read and write. I can truly say when we parted ways we parted in love, peace and harmony to allow each of us to grow further in our own legacy. I'm grateful for the moments we shared after our separation. It allowed us to reflect on our personal growths. Isaias and I continued to keep in touch especially during monumental timelines in our life. I'm truly grateful for these moments. This is not the first time I lost someone I dearly loved. The first time I lost someone I truly loved was my son Dominick. Isaias had a heart of gold. He sat with me through every horrid detail with me and my son. He was there with me as my son took his last breath. I remember how angry he was that a child so innocent was taken. He couldn't never comprehend. Isaias loved all children. This is the person who I fell in love with. He was someone who would give the shirt off his back to someone in need if it was genuine. Isaias was genuine. When someone you love dies, you surround yourself with their memories. Some of my favorite memories with Isaias are: Santa Monica, San Fernando, and San Francisco. Isaias would love to just get in the car and drive. He was very spontaneous and I loved this about him. When I was notified about what happened to Isaias, I was on an island of grief. I'm still deeply grieving. The love we had never truly dies. Battling the waves of "you don’t deserve to feel so sad". But once, long ago, he was mine. And we had that kind of head-over-heels, toxic, terrifying, captivating, addicting, die-for-each-other love.  I will always love you. 

Isaias and I Share a very beautiful 4 year old daughter together, her name is Samantha and I know he loved her very much he always bought her numerous amount of gifts even if she didn’t need it he’d still buy it, they shared so many memories together when he’d come to visit her, he would take her to the beach, the park, the lake, zoo, amusement parks, and he also loved to take her shopping, he loved her smile her laugh and her goofiness, she was his first and only child, he would have done anything in this world for, Samantha was the love of his life the love that he thought he’d never get the chance to have.
